“Good personal service.”

Helpful in allowing extra dog for 2 days. Simon was very attentive when the boiler stopped working and kept us informed of progress to repair it.

Superb location for walking in the Howgills and close to station to take us down to the Ingleborough area across the Ribble Head Viaduct.

“We had a wonderful week at Farriers Cottage, stunning location.”

Property exceeded out expectations. So much to see and do in the local dales, a must for any countryside / wildlife lover.
So close to the settle-Carlisle railway and ribblehead also a must do.

“We had a fantastic week in Farriers Cottage.”

It is clean, comfortable and full of character. Garsdale is a great spot for exploring the western Dales and in easy distance of the Lake District. We would recommend this cottage to anyone.

“We had a very comfortable stay and enjoyed the cottage.”

Three cars came from differing places and we all had difficulty in locating our destination but local people were friendly and helpful in putting us right. It is nitpicking to not give full marks to cleanliness. One expects a few cobwebs in old properties and, sure enough, there were some. The owners are to be complimented on their choice of flooring and fitments.

“The cottage is a great place to stay, truly lovely inside and out, everything you need, in an idyllic location, woke up to red squirrels, baby rabbits in the garden and lambs in the nearby fields.”

Great for visiting the surrounding area's. I would not hesitate to book Farrier's cottage again. Looking forward to another stay ☺

“Great cottage in a very quite location, fully equipped even including a bottle of wine and plenty of coal for the wood burning stove.”

We would definitely recommend this cottage and some of the local walks..

About the location

GARSDALE

Sedbergh 7 miles; Hawes 9 miles.

Garsdale is a small hamlet of stone cottages and farmhouses, nestled together with a village hall, church and chapel, resting at the foot of the dale alongside the meandering river Clough between Sedbergh and Hawes. Sheep graze on either side of the dale in this tranquil valley which is perfectly situated for days out in the Yorkshire Dales or the Lake District. The nearest market towns are Sedbergh, 7 miles to the west, and Hawes, 9 miles to the east, both of which retain their ancient character and traditions and are well situated for shops, banks and traditional pubs. With wonderful walks through the dale from the doorstep, and the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park surrounding you, this is an idyllic and peaceful setting for your holiday.
